METHOD FOR SEPARATION AND TREATMENT OF GRAIN MIXTURES Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: agricultural engineering, in particular, machines for simultaneously separating and treating seeds.

SUBSTANCE: method involves exposing grain mixture to movable, for example rotating, corona discharge electric field; separating grain mixture in non-homogeneous electric field zone created along perimeter between oppositely charged potential electrodes, with electric field intensity reduction gradient being directed perpendicular to axis of rotation of electrodes toward surrounding space.

EFFECT: improved quality of separation and treatment of grain mixtures and increased efficiency of electric separating and electric stimulating apparatuses.
